Thanks for your prompt & precise response. It puts me in a bit of a bind, since I have never used github :-/ .... I'm on FBSD 9.3, so no linux-c6 (apparently) available. My distinfo in my linux-f10-flashplugin ports directory already shows the same info on the webpage, i.e. I seem to be already using the software referenced above, non ? Please advise & thanks for any guidance you can provide :-) .... -- William A.
